The '''Footpad '''(real name: '''[[Lanz]]''') is an unlockable multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', who becomes available after the player has has reached level 35. He uses a pair of daggers called [[Multiplayer Weapons#Shivs|Shivs]].

==Unique Moves ==

'''''The Second Chancer (High Profile, Front)'''''
: The Footpad runs directly at his target and raises one of his Shivs for a high attack, (perhaps in attempt to stab at the head, neck or shoulders) but the target resists and pushes him back. Then, The Footpad ducks down to waist level for another attempt and stabs the lower torso of the target.

'''''Beat Down (Low Profile, Front)'''''
: The Footpad approaches his target and than inflicts a rapid sequence of punches to the lower torso, followed by an uppercut to the targets jaw, sending the target's head back. Now the neck is exposed, he brings down his Shivs to the lower neck for the final blow.

'''''The Double Piercing (Low Profile, Back)'''''
: The Footpad approaches from behind, grabbing his target by his/her left shoulder, stabbing them in the side of the abdomen twice, the second stab forcing his victim to the floor.

'''''The Swift Slasher (High Profile, Back)'''''
: The Footpad runs to his target from behind, slashing them horizontally across their spine, and stabbing them in the left of the abdomen.

'''''Blind and Helpless (Bench Kill)'''''
:The Footpad slashes his seated target across the eyes with his right shiv, before spinning the blade around in his hand and stabbing his victim through the throat.

==Trivia==
*"Footpad" is an old-fashioned word for thief, but was replaced by the term "Mugger" in the late 15th century.
*In the Dutch version of the game, the footpad translates to "the highwayman".
*It is interesting to note that, in the trailer showing the Footpad, he is seen perhaps stealing something from the [[Barber]]'s waist, before becoming the target of the chase; not unlike the [[Pickpocketing#Pickpockets|Pickpockets]] from ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''.
**Pickpocketing is not an action performable in the mulitplayer. It is unknown how or why this action was performed in the trailer, however, it was most likely cosmetic.
**The Barber seems to be chasing the Footpad in order to assassinate him, however, the Footpad kills the Barber very shortly afterwards.
*In the Limited Codex Edition of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, on the multiplayer character card, there is a spelling mistake: "Cutting through groups of people, he moves towards his target as silent and deadly as a snake. Quickly, he rushes to his victim, brandishes his two knives and plants them into flesh, as if they were fangs. The target falls, '''the crowd creams''', but the Footpad has already vanished."
*Strangely, the Russian translation of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood labels him as "Soldier".
*Lanz is an old Germanic name, meaning that Lanz may possibly be German. If he is German, the fact that his elite gear consists of him wearing a turban barely makes any sense.
*His shivs have what looks like brass knuckles, which can be why he punches his target in his Beat Down kill animation.

{{Quote|Born and raised in a world of poverty, the Thief was taught how to steal, run and climb to survive, alongside her brother. Always together, acting as a team, they once split a pair of scissors to make a weapon, swearing to protect each other. It's been 10 years now... and she's never forgotten the day she broke her promise.|Ubisoft description}}

[[Image: The Thief.jpg|The Thief|150px|thumb]]

The '''Thief''' (real name: '''Faustina Collari''') is an unlockable multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', available after the player has reached level 25. Her weapon is a [[Multiplayer Weapons#Scissor Blade|Scissor Blade]].

==Unique Moves==

'''''Ankle Grabber (Low Profile, Back)'''''
:The Thief walks up behind her target and reaches down to grab their ankle. After the target turns around, she stands up straight and uses the momentum to stab her target in the head with her scissor blade. When her target is on a bench, she only stabs them in the side of the head, not touching their ankle.

'''''Joy Ride (High Profile, Back)'''''
:The Thief runs upto her target and jumps onto their back. As she holds onto them while they stagger forward, giving herself a piggyback ride, she stabs her target in their chest twice. She then hops off their body and conceals her weapon.

'''''Heart Attack (Low Profile, Front)'''''
:The Thief approaches her target from the front and makes a deadly blow to her target's heart. Getting her blade stuck in their torso, she wiggles the blade side to side before yanking her scissor blade out the target's chest, stashing it away.

'''''Go For the Eyes! (High Profile, Front)'''''
:The Thief engages her target and they both briefly struggle to dominate the other. Consequently, the Thief wins the struggle and seizes the opportunity to stab her target in the eye with her scissor blade.

Hellequin

78.152.246.53: /* Unique Moves */

{{Era|acb|pl|templars}}{{Quote|Caha, along with her brother Cahin, uses theatrics to beguile and brutalize her victims.|Ubisoft}}
[[File:HellequinFull.jpg|thumb|200px|Hellequin]]
Caha, also known as the '''Hellequin''', is a multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. Along with her brother, Cahin, the [[Harlequin]], she works as a Templar Agent for Cesare Borgia and is mentioned to originate from France.

Despite her brightly-colored costume and somewhat eccentric headgear, the Hellequin clearly prefers to act in dramas. Especially the bloody ones. When using her [[Multiplayer Weapons#Twin Daggers|twin golden daggers]], she is sure to leave her audience with a grin from ear-to-ear. Her default attire consists of a striped gold and purple jester costume, with an ornate golden mask.

In [[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy|''Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy'']], Caha and Cahin are first seen doing a performance together, while [[Fiora Cavazza]] watches them. The performance turns out to be a ruse, with Caha, Cahin, and Fiora killing all of the guests attending. Fiora notes that the siblings seem mad, but fun. Later on, after Fiora turns tail and helps the [[Assassins]] weaken [[Cesare Borgia]]'s defense, she joins them in assassinating Caha and Cahin.
==Unique Moves==
'''''Cunning Trick (Low Profile, Back)'''''
: The Hellequin taps her victim on the shoulder, twirling around them as the victim turns. As the victim searches for the source of the touch, the Hellequin quickly stabs once in the lower back, underneath the rib-cage.

'''''Killer Leap Frog Hop (High Profile, Front)'''''
: The Hellequin vaults over her victim whilst stabbing them in the crevices between the neck and the shoulder blades (the subclavian artery), before landing behind them and nudges the victim with her bottom, letting gravity pull their limp body to the floor.

'''''Curtain Close (Low Profile, Front)'''''
: The Hellequin, once close-range and facing the target, stabs the feet of her victim with one of her daggers. Once the target can no longer step ahead, she takes the other dagger from the ring on her belt and stabs the target under the chin, before bending down to retrieve the dagger in their foot, rehooking both of them to her belt.

'''''The Split - Leg Snapper (Bench Kill)'''''
: The Hellequin climbs up her target and wraps one leg around their neck and one behind their back before leaning forward, sending her and her target towards the ground, their neck snapping backwards once her knee touches the floor beneath them.

==Customization==
Colors:
*Basic: Gold and Purple
*Extra 1: Fuchsia and Purple
*Extra 2: Sky Blue and Purple
*Extra 3: Navy Blue and Purple
Gear:
*Advanced: Added metal feather on mask, added poofed upper sleeves.
*Superior: Added thigh-high boots, darker belt.
*Elite: Added hood and miniature cape, added collars on upper sleeves, added fancy white, folded undershirt at chest.

[[File:Hellequeen_blades.jpg|thumb]]

==Trivia==
*The Hellequin can be unlocked through [[Uplay]] for 40 Uplay Points.
*It has been confirmed that the [[Harlequin]] is her brother, as stated by their in-game Multiplayer descriptions.
*"Hellequin" is not a play on the word "harlequin", slotting out "harl" for "hell", as people have been led to believe. The Hellequin was the precursor to the traditional harlequin.
*Caha's and her brother's names are based on the French phrase "cahin caha" meaning willy nilly.

[[Image: Assassin's Creed - Brotherhood ( Captain ( 03 ))..jpg|150px|thumb]]

The '''Captain''' (real name: [[Donato Mancini]]) previously known as The Soldier is a multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed Brotherhood]]''. The Captain's weapons consist of a [[Multiplayer Weapons#Captain's Swords|short sword and a dagger]].

He was offered an ornate suit of armor and many other gifts but he refused to back down steadfastly preaching that the winner is the winner. 
Despite their many attempts to stop his victory he emerged victorious making Cesare furious. He ordered Donato beaten and he was, brutally.

He was a man of honor which Fiora Cavazza respected.

'''''Fatal Flourish (High Profile, Front)'''''

Blacksmith (Animi Avatar)

2011-04-05T18:39:19Z

78.152.246.53: /* Unique Moves */

{{Era|acb|templars}}{{quote|More than a mere tool, his Hammer defines the Blacksmith. He hits it hard against huge pieces of metal, making a strong and powerful sound. The Blacksmith uses the same gestures to smash his targets' heads. Funny, he often muses, the sound is quite different then...|Ubisoft Description}}[[File:Char_blacksmith.png|thumb]]

The '''Blacksmith''' (real name '''[[Auguste Oberlin]]''') is an unlockable multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. He uses a large [[Multiplayer Weapons#Hammer|hammer]] as his primary weapon. He was a Swiss [[mercenary]] and appears in the story mode of ''Brotherhood ''as a Templar Agent. To unlock the Blacksmith, the player has to reach level 15.

[[Fiora Cavazza]] was actually shocked by him, as he gave the impression of a brute while being a very cultured man.

In 1503 [[Ezio Auditore]] saw a woman sitting on a bench in town beaten and bruised, and he asked the woman who had done this to her. She replied that her husband changed as the [[Borgia]] gave him what he wanted and instead of him posting signs for the shops, he claimed them in the name of the Borgia and hurt any who stood in his way. Ezio tore down the Borgia posters one by one until Augustine heard of this. Enraged, he found Ezio and attacked with brute force, aided by his hammer, but instead fell by the blade of the Assassin, putting his control over the neighborhood shops to an end.

==Unique Moves==
'''''Backbreaker (Low Profile, Back)'''''
: The blacksmith creeps up behind his victim and then picks him\her up with both hands and then slams the victims back on his knee, crushing their spine. He then drops the lifeless body on the ground. This move can be performed from the front as well.

'''''Hammer Time (High Profile, Back)'''''
: The Blacksmith runs up behind his target. He takes out his hammer and with violent force sweeps his victim's legs out from beneath them causing them to fall backwards. He then swings the hammer onto their face smashing it in a bloody mess killing them instantly.

'''''Drag and Smash (Bench Kill)'''''
: The Blacksmith hooks his hammer underneath the sitting victim's foot and drags them by the leg onto the floor before taking the top part of his hammer and smashing it into the victim's face.

'''''The High Striker (Aerial Kill)'''''
:The Blacksmith lands on his victim, forcing them to the ground. He straddles their waist and delivers a powerful hammer strike to the victim's head, killing them instantly.

'''''The Bloody Facial (High Profile, Front)'''''
: The Blacksmith runs at his target, knocking them down and rides his hammer into their face, before dislodging it and carrying on.

'''''The Throat Twister (Low Profile, Front)'''''
: The Blacksmith puts his hammer across his victim's throat and with a twist, he snaps their neck.

==Customization==
Colors:
*Basic: Red apron 
*Extra 1: Blue apron 
*Extra 2: White apron 
*Extra 3: Black apron 
Gear:
*Advanced: Color of plate armor changed to gold, gauntlet adorned with metal, added leather vambrace over gauntlet. 
*Superior: Apron has added design, added longer braided mustache. 
*Elite: Larger spaulders.

==Trivia==
*The Blacksmith never receives an armguard or sleeve of somekind on his left arm to attach a hidden gun, so if the hidden gun is equipped on him, it will appear as if it is internally attached to his skin.
*Even though the multiplayer character, his database picture, promotional artwork, and his profession all have/use hammers, he fights with a bearded axe against Ezio in the single player templar assignment.
